Cinnamon, ginger, and cloves impart that classic cookie flavor into this moist gingerbread cake. I topped this cake with whipped cream, but cream cheese frosting or a simple dusting of powdered sugar would be just as delicious! <\/em><\/p>\n

Take a break from chilling and rolling cookie dough this holiday season, and make this classic gingerbread cake for a change! <\/p>\n

This is essentially a molasses cake that’s flavored with warming spices like cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Although richly spiced in flavor, the cake remains moist and can be enjoyed plain or with a dollop of whipped cream on top. <\/p>\n

If you need an easy make-ahead dessert this holiday season, this gingerbread cake would be a great option. If you wait to add the whipped cream until slicing and serving it, the cake will remain tender and moist on your countertop for a couple days. <\/p>\n

Made with basic ingredients and a handheld mixer, this easy cake recipe is good to have tucked up your sleeve for the holidays! <\/p>\n
